My King Mates

“What happened? Why did my mate collapse like that?” I hear a voice that sounds like Sawyer.

“It’s nothing serious. She will be fine and make a full recovery. Her body is tired. She’s in a new world that she isn’t used to with new rules and a new role. She hasn’t had time to adjust to her new life and she’s been doing something every day and hasn’t had any downtime. I gave her some medication that will keep her asleep for as long as her body needed. She will wake up when her body recovers” I hear a man explain to my mate.

“Do we need to stay here?” Another voice that sounds like the Vampire King asks. “If you need to leave then go but if you want to stay then you can” I hear Walter’s voice. “The dinner portion of this date will resume when she’s feeling better” he adds.

“I must be going then. I have a lot of work to do. I’ll drop by when I can,” I hear the Vampire King say then leave. After that everything goes quiet.

…

“Day 5 my sweet Amber” I hear a broken voice. That tone I know all too well from living at the auction house. So many girls cracked. “I know you are sleeping and when your body is ready to wake you’ll be fine. But life right now isn’t… it isn’t worth living. I Don’t know what living without you is like. Wake up when you are ready but I know that I will fight for you more than I already am.” After I heard him say that everything fades away again.

——

“It’s been a week. Dr. Wagner are you sure she’s going to wake up?”

“Her body is weak and tired. When she’s ready she’ll wake up” I’m guessing that’s Dr. Wagner replying.

“What am I supposed to tell the Kings? King Sawyer is getting antsy and we haven’t heard from King Dante” the first voice says.

“Doesn’t this affect their score?” the doctor asks. I think it’s time I wake up. It’s been a week and Sawyer needs me. I try to open my eyes but that doesn’t work.

“Yes, it does. Leaving doesn’t dock points but it does if they don’t come back. The only way it won’t hurt their points for not coming back is if they call us and let us know they can’t come back and why. It also docks his points because he hasn’t even called to check up on her. King Sawyer is furious that someone that is supposed to care for her hasn’t wanted to know how their mate is doing”

I try to wiggle my fingers first the few try nothing but on my 5th try, I finally got them to wiggle. After that I try to wiggle my toes and when I achieve that I go to move my hands and arms. When my entire body is moving I try to open my eyes.

“She better wake up soon. She was supposed to move in with her mate a couple of days ago. Now the process is going to be taking longer than I wanted” I hear Walter grump.

“Well if you didn’t overwork her and let her have some days off you wouldn’t be in this position” the Doctor fires at Walter. Wow, the Doctor has balls.

“I wouldn’t be so bold if I were you, Doctor Wagner. I can fire you on the spot” Walter threatens him. “Yes you can but I won’t be officially fired. I can work here even if you fired me unless all the councilmen agree for me to be fired and I know for a fact they all would agree with me. You shouldn’t have been the one to take this job. You wore this young lady down to the bone. She doesn’t deserve to be treated this way and are you forgetting that this is your future Queen? And if she’s given to a certain King you could be fired… or worse?” The Doctor asks. My eyes open up but I quickly close them due to the bright light.

“She’s no future Queen. She’s a slave in sheep clothing. She will ruin this world and that is why she must go to someone who will put her in her place and won’t let her be involved” Walter begins.

I open my eyes a couple of times and when they are finally adjusted to the light I look over at Walter and the Doctor. They don’t look very happy with each other. But I close my eyes and act like I’m still sleeping. I do not want them to know I’m awake. I want to know how this goes down.

“But you are right I am the wrong one for this job and I didn’t even want to volunteer myself but I hate Werewolves with a deep passion and I want them to suffer. Knowing that without the mate he can’t mate with anyone else since a King can only have his true mate which means no heir which means bye-bye Werewolves.” Walter explains.

I knew he was a bitch but I didn’t know he was this big of one. “Isn’t the council supposed to be unbiased and want the good for every species?” The Doctor asks.

“Yes, but I don’t work that way.” Walter chuckles. I’m sick of this conversation. I will be with Sawyer and when I am I’ll tell him everything.

I move my body to act like I’m just now starting to wake up. “I think she’s waking up. I’ll check on her. Notify the council and get her mates” the Doctor tells Walter.

Walter tells the Doctor to not tell him what to do and leaves the room. When I hear the door close shut I open my eyes and look around my surroundings. I then look at the Doctor as he comes over to me. “Hello, Miss. Amber. I’m Doctor Wagner. Do you remember what happened?” He asks me. I shack my head no.

Doctor Wagner nods his head. “I’ll explain,” he tells me. “Your body is worn out. You haven’t had a chance to relax and adjust. Your body got overwhelmed which resulted in you collapsing.” He tells me.

“I gave you some medication to help you stay asleep until your body was fully healed and when your body was healed you would wake up. Your mate should be here shortly. You have a couple of visitors while you were out. Obviously, King Sawyer was in here almost every day it was a bitch to get him out so he can eat, sleep and take a shower. Also that girl Leyla has been in here as well. Walter has thrown so much work at her I’m waiting for her to collapse too. But when she could escape from her workload she would be here” he finishes.

He also finishes looking over me and good timing too because the door swings open hits the wall so hard I won’t be surprised if there is a door handle imprint. Sawyer walks in and makes his way straight to me. Without saying a single word or giving me a moment to give him a look over he’s pulling me tightly in his arms.

“Thank the Moon Goddess you are okay. Amber, I was so scared that you would never wake up.” Sawyer tells me. “King Dante said he can’t make it today but he’ll be here tomorrow,” Walter says as he comes into the room.

Sawyer pulls away from me and grabs my hand. “When can she leave?” He asks Doctor Wanger.

“She can go now. It’s not like she’s going very far. I’m assuming that you’ll be staying by her side so if you notice anything off have someone call me and I’ll check up on her. Her body is still a bit weak so keep tonight mellow. Other than that she’s good” Doctor Wagner tells Sawyer.

Before another word could be said the door opens again and Leyla walks in. A huge smile forms on my face. The only female I can trust and count as a friend. “Sorry, I’m late. I’m so close to finishing one of the projects. But here are some comfy clothes for Amber to wear” Leyla says. She walks into the bathroom I’m guessing that’s where she’s placing my clothes. She walks out of the bathroom gives me a small smile mouth ‘sorry’ before she walks out the door.

My smile dropped when the door closed and my heartfelt hurt. Why didn’t she stay? I thought she would be happy that I’m awake and would want to talk. Sawyer must have noticed my mood change since he sits on the edge of the bed and rubs my back.

“Walter and I will take our leave now. Sir Sawyer do you know where to go?” The Doctor asks before he walks out of the room. “I know the way,” Sawyer tells him. The Doctor nods and leaves the room. Sawyer stands up and pulls the blanket off of me. “Let’s get you dressed,” he tells me and helps me out of bed. Of course, a blush covers my cheeks.

Is he really going to help me get dressed? This will be the first time a male sees me in nothing besides underwear. But he is the man I want to be with and I do trust him. But what if he doesn’t like what he sees? I know Werewolves are very horny creatures and males are so much worse than females. Sawyer has told me how he’s having a tough time holding his wolf and himself back.

Sawyer opens the door and turns the light on. “If you don’t want me to help I can stay out here. I don’t want you to feel like you have to let me help you and I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable,” Sawyer tells me. I stare at him for a second. Would I be okay with him helping me? I feel totally comfortable with him but would I feel comfortable with him helping me get dressed? Maybe it won’t be such a bad idea to let him help me. Something in me is telling me when we are announced to be together, he won’t want to wait any longer to bed with me. I hope I don’t regret this decision.

“I’m okay with you helping me,” I softly tell him while looking at my feet in embarrassment. Wait no I’m not shaved. No, he can’t see me like this. I quickly look at Sawyer in panic “what’s wrong?” he asks.

“I’m not shaved. You can’t see me like this. I’ll be fine with getting ready by myself” I tell him. I try to walk into the bathroom so I can close the door but Sawyer grabs my hand. I stop trying to get away from him and instead I turn around so I’m looking into his beautiful blue eyes. I can’t believe I’m daring enough to look a King in his eyes.

“I don’t care if you’re shaved or not and I especially don’t care now. You were asleep for a week. But you are still weak and I don’t want you falling and getting hurt. So I’m going to help you and I promise I’ll do my best to hold myself and my wolf back and to not be inappropriate. I’ll save that for our first night together as mates” he tells me.

I take a deep breath in and nod my head. Mostly because I want to get out of this hospital gown. We walk into the bathroom and Sawyer closes the door. He has me sit on the toilet as he grabs my clothes to get them ready so this can be quick.

“Has that girl been your stylest this entire time?” Sawyer asks as he walks over to me. I nod my head. “Honey you can talk to me. I want you to talk to me. I don’t like not being able to hear your voice” Sawyer tells me as he unties the gown’s strings. “I’m sorry. Leyla has been my stylist since our first time meeting. She has become the only one here besides Lennon that I trust and I count her as my only friend” I tell him.

“Who’s Lennon?” Sawyer asks a little bit aggressive. Hmm, he’s jealous. When the gown is untied I wrap my arms around my boobs so the gown doesn’t fall down. “He’s my bodyguard that Walter assigned to watch over me until I leave” I explain. “Baby you can let that fall. You don’t have to be shy around me. I’ll be seeing your beautiful body today anyway.” Sawyer tells me as he walks over to the vanity.

I keep holding onto the gown a bit embarrassed to show a man my body for the first time. I look up at Sawyer to find him already looking at me with a ghost of a smile. “I can’t wait until your official mine,” he tells me then brings his focus back to my clothes. A smile grows on my face and I remove my arms letting the gown fall. I can’t wait until I’m officially yours either.
